## Section D                      Achievements and performance 

**Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year** 

We are pleased to report that the activities of the Whalley Village Hall Community Association, which  were severely disrupted  by  the  COVID19  epidemic,  have  mostly  been restored during the last financial year. 

The  building  continues  to  be  used  for  a  wide  range  of activities; educational and recreational from toddlers groups,  to  a  woodcarving  group  to  Zumba  and  Pilates classes and Scottish Country Dancing. Rental for the use of Hall’s facilities is the main source of income for the Trust. 

The Hall Committee organises regular social events for the local  community  (the  so-called  First  Saturday  events). Whenever  possible  the  organisers  use  local  performers from  the  field  of  music  and  drama.  One  of  the  most successful of these was a celebration of the late Queen’s Platinum Jubilee with a historical drama written and acted by people who live in the Village. 

The Trustees also gives financial support to other ventures which  contribute  to  the  social  fabric  of  Whalley.  In  the current  year,  we  were  able  to  offer  help  to  the  local primary  school  for  the  development  of  a  wild  garden, which in due course will be run by the pupils. (Note that this payment will appear in the2022/23 accounts) 

We can also provide assistance in times of emergency in the Village. In March 2022, a serious house fire in a street that neighbours the Hall resulted in many of the residents in adjacent houses having to evacuate their homes. The Village Hall was able to offer temporary accommodation and catering facilities.
